Catalog log
Broadcast listing — not a TV Flash recap.
Paulie shows up at Tony's house to tell him he's learned the Feds are looking into a murder case from the early 1980s. In fact it was Tony's first killing where he made his 'bones'. Tony decides he and Paulie need to lay low for a while and they head off on a road trip to Florida. They reminisce about the old days but Paulie is definitely getting on Tony's nerves. They also find that many things along the route have changed over the years. Tony is particularly interested in knowing who may have told Johnny Sack about the fat joke directed at his wife. Uncle Junior meanwhile has taken to organizing a poker game with his new friend Carter Chong. Junior's as grumpy as ever but continues to suffer from memory loss from time to time. Carter likes Junior's rebellious attitude but things change when the doctors change Junior's meds and he becomes far more docile.

In the series
Why this series still plays
Because the antihero era's founding novel still interrogates the appetite it feeds: therapy as structure, family as co-author of harm, and a last cut that treats the audience as a hungry party rather than a customer owed a souvenir.
The first useful image is not a gun. It is a man in a waiting room. The Sopranos opens, January 10, 1999, on Tony Soprano seeking psychiatric help after collapsing at a family gathering, and the century's novel learns to breathe on Sunday night cable. David Chase did not invent the gangster. He invented a structure that would not let the gangster be only a gangster: family as co-author of harm, New Jersey mundanity in the same frame as violence, dreams that are not Easter eggs so much as the show thinking out…
